Two Reading men have been jailed for a combined total of 21 years for their roles in a drugs operation between Reading and Wales.

Another four men from Wales were also sentenced for their part in the conspiracy at Reading Crown Court this afternoon.

They all faced sentencing for conspiracy to supply heroin after a six week trial.

Judge Richard Parkes said Tajudeen Anjorin, 36, of Helston Gardens, Whitley, was the "lead figure" among the six defendants and sentenced him to 11 years in prison.

Damien Cadogan, 28, of Oak Green, Whitley Wood, was sentenced to five years jail for conspiracy and for further five years to run consecutively for possession of a firearm.

Dominic Isaacs, 21, of Aberthaw Drive, Newport, was judged to be the most important player in the Welsh contingent and received a nine year prison sentence.

Nicholas Somers, 23, of Mitchell Terrace, Gwent, received five years and six months imprisonment.

Tobias Mills, 22, of Jamaica Circle, Newport was given a two years and six months jail sentence.

Bradleigh Scawthorn, 21, of Fairoak Avenue, Newport, was sentenced to five years and six months jail for this offence and a further three years and four months to run consecutively for a further offence of possessing heroin with intent to supply, for which he had previously pleaded guilty to at Cardiff Crown Court.

Anjorin, Cadogan, Somers and Mills had all denied the charges but were found guilty at Reading Crown Court
